OK so I have the opportunity to bring back my 07 Disco3 SE from South Africa next year, the issue is I will need a 40 foot container versus 20 foot container which costs an additional £1,000 (approx.)
The disco is completely rust free with all the underneath bolts still with the zinc as though they came out the factory. It has done approx 130k miles and drives like new, it would be almost impossible to find one in this rust free condition in the UK. I could probably sell it for around £4700 in South Africa.
It is actually SWAMBO's car who has a 2017 model Discovery Sport here which we are not impressed with, she would have her Disco 3 any day. The issue is the running costs here with road fund licence over £500 and fuel economy circa 25MPG although the vehicle would be used occasionally.
So the question is what would be the part x value be if I wanted to trade it in for a Discovery commercial manual which is what I want for my Howling moon roof top tent?
Any thoughts or interest would be appreciated. Owning a Discovery 3 is like dating a model.. a firm body and shape, wow.. the ride is fantastic > for this your wallet can take a pounding and you worry about being deflated at any time...
